  1. If that hijacking thing is a big concern, holler. I’ll hold the rope down the rabbit hole.
  2. Some do, but they’re shit.
  3. How deep down the rabbit hole do you want to go? Are we talking cloud/wifi shit, or real PoE cams with local storage and backup?
  4. Ha! Me neither, really. Yet Missouri is building a $35M facility for it. I bout spit my coffee out when that was on the news here.
  5. I love watching the Padres booth guys almost as much as my own. It’s like they start drinking first pitch, and by the 5th/6th things get really entertaining. (They’re not, but it’s all in good fun.)
  6. My understanding is they will also be available on peacock as well, but hopefully not just peacock for any of them. But with having games available on both falls under the parent company and not just NBC.
  7. Sunday night baseball moves to nbc, ESPN gets a mid-week package. Fox/TBS stay the same. Apple stays the same. Netflix is getting the HR Derby, and FoD. MLB.tv stays the same, but 6 teams will be able to have in-market games as well (assumed as an extra for those in those markets.) ESPN app subscribers can buy an mlb.tv subscription through the ESPN app, and/or an in-market subscription. A bit of a circus, but nothing that’s really different overall. MLB gets another path of subscriptions, sunday night changes channels, now there’s mid-week national games. I was wondering similar and looked into that stuff (overall, not just ROOT) last spring. It’s my understanding their intentions are to retain teams current broadcast staff. The end result is you should get the same people and broadcast, but through mlb.tv and not all the random RSN’s.
  8. Looks like it’s just an agreement to allow espn to be an additional outlet to purchase mlb.tv, and/or the in-market games, and be able to watch them through espn. As an option, not a requirement. Like how you’re able to get showtime stuff on paramount+ or hulu on disney+, with the right package. At least that’s how I’m reading it from the couple articles I’ve seen.
  9. There’s the mlb notes. Here’s the linky: https://www.mlb.com/news/mlb-announces-media-rights-deals-with-espn-nbc-netflix
  10. Same as usual is my understanding: mlb.tv The difference on those teams is instead of an RSN, their home games will also be through mlb.tv. It’s the start of what MLB has been after long-term in getting it all combined under one roof. How espn is playing into that specifically, in terms of distribution, I dunno how that works yet. I need to read more here in a few. So whether ESPN is going to be where you go for mlb.tv, or if they mean you can buy it through espn is where I’m uncertain. Or maybe you’ll be able to link your mlb account and use either the mov app, or the espn app. What’s more on top of that, I just saw that NBC is getting Sunday night and some other shit. Saw a ticker, have to dig that up.
